This is a different functionality to what a discussion is.
However the way I would do this, is have a category permission assign to moderator/admin.
Then create special type of permission, which provides the "own user" capability, in a separate di…

Fremium is good when the purchase is worth-while, though
That is a generalist statement. Fremium by its nature limits what you can do with the code.
Anyway I have said all I'm going say on this

Vanilla is unlikely to do a fremium model. As GPL doesn't really work well with fremium, and it undermines their existing services and customer base on hosted.
Other business may do it, but they start out on that path. Personally I'm not a huge fan…

Well, it would be possible for the very very bear boned version to just not have phone support or whatever you're offering at the moment.
You are not expected to put together a business plan and tell that to investors. In short it is easy for y…

I'm not offering anything, or selling anything. I'm not affiliated with Vanilla the company.
I'm saying the features get benefit from economy of scale. So you may be able to to replicate feature but not capacity.

Yes 'mI saying that if you hosted yourself you would have to replicate their infrastructure which could cost you 100's of dollars a month. You are paying for a service, not simply some feature that you install.

You are basically asking for a different product. If you are linking to discussion, there is no embedding involved.
If I were making this plugin I would do it a totally different way that is is currently done.

@Lokio27 if you have skills what are you complaining about? I think you should read a good article on OS software.
No intuitive, no go. It is as simple of that. Either make do or use your initiative.
If you think thins thread will come to much don…

Curl is basic requirement of many plug-ins.
It is for making request server to sever. Or in this case talking to google recpacha to verify.
If you don't know how to install it, ask your host. You need curl, php-curl and the following functions to …

Many of my plugins allow this, if you are contributing back to a plugin this is typically the code that I use.

$ThemeViewLoc = CombinePaths(array(
PATH_THEMES, Gdn::Controller()->Theme, '…

@DenisS that is a misconception of what Open Source is
The clue in the word 'source' as in source code. The whole concept of OS is around contribution, and distribution of code. Github does that effectively. Naturally it has quite a lot to do with …
